Los ANGELES and Southern Califor-
mia, from Point Conception to the
Mexican line, are undergoing a devel-
opment among the most phenomenal
on record. There has been none of the
jack-knife swapping boom in our case.
The natural growth of section of
unusual attractions, in the lines of
climate and material enterprise is the
spur to ambition hereabouts. A great
railway corporation has banded the
continent with steel to reach this re-
gion. That slow, staid, conservative
monopoly with nothing to inspire en-
terprise save the catching of the dol
lar Immediately in view-the Western
Union-is on the coast for the purpose
of doubling its facilities in order
to meet existing needs arising
from our growth in this section. The
Pacific Coast Steamship Company is
building two more steamers in order
to give South California ports daily
service to San Francisco. This in
view of the fact that we are to have
two lines of railroad at once, with one
or two more in year or so, instead of
one at present, between this city and
San Francisco, speaks trumpet
tongued of the development of this
end of the State.

ADDITIONS TO ANAHEIM.
The old Town waking Up.

The Cowan place, owned by Mr. G..
w. Burton, has been subdivided into
five-acre villa lots, and Will be sold on
a plan similar to that on which an
cient Anaheim was first divided and
settled. Shares of the denomination
of $4,000 each will be issued, and when
all are taken distribution of the diff
ferent subdivisions will occur by draw
ings or otherwise. They will not only
be valuable for homes, but the chance
will be offered of drawing in this way
the fine brick mansion on the place
and the improvements around it.
Another addition to Anaheim on
the west is that of McDuffee Bros, of
Los Angeles, comprising the Lecroq
tract of thirty acres adjoining Alex.
Henry's. The tract has already been
subdivided and put on the market,
and G. C. Brock, who is connected
with this firm and who has
been looking after this interest OF
theirs here, assures the Neac Era
that there is good prospect that the
street railway will be extended down
the Centralia road to this tract. The
property owners along this beautiful
driveway, lined by pleasant homes,
nearly all show cheerful willingness,
Mr.. Brock says, to make the reason
able concessions and subscriptions
which will so greatly enhance the
value of their own property.
The Fred. Hartung vineyard OF
fourteen acres, situated diagonally
across Orange street from the Santa
Fe tract, and which as announced IN
The NeW Era last week was purchased
bv Chynoweth and others, Pasadena
syndicate, for subdivision into lots,
will be built upon by the company
and then put on the market on some
plan of drawing for lots and cottages.
Still another subdivision is that al
ready published in this paper of the j.
P. Zeyn and Fred Eichler tracts, at
the south end of Los Angeles street,
by the Pasadena syndicate headed by
John McCloughan, and strong effort,
which it is to be hoped will prove
successful one, is being made to have
the street car line extended out Los
Angeles street as far as this point.
These new investments of outside
capital in Anaheim lands for subdi-
vision into additions to the town, are
very hopeful indication for the future
OF the town, and, together with the
numerous similar land deals and
changes constantly being made here,
but small fraction of which are OBJ
tainable for publication, and the prom
Use again given of one or more new
hotels, show that the old town is wax
ing up and shaking herself, and that
the Anaheimers who have been so
often in these columns urged to invest
at homeland have done so-may
strike pay dirt Era.

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER ee.
Public improvements.

Our local columns to-day contain
reports on two very important branch
es of public improvement. Bids were
opened yesterday by the Board OF
Supervisors for the building OF our
new county court house. By all
means let this much needed public
work 90 on. Let beginning be made
with the least possible further delay,
and let us have at as early day as
may be place of safety for our inval-
liable archives.
The other matter is of no less mo-
ment. It is the sewer system OF the
city. The City Engineers report is
now laid before the people, and it is
greatly to be hoped that the authori-
ties may find it to be Of such a char
acter as to justify the immediate
undertaking of the work. Densely
peopled portions of the munich
pality must be severed without
furt Ter delay. This is the great sani-
tarium of the Union, on account OF
its perfect climate. Our air must be
kept pure, not only because our pros
perity hinges on this; but, also, be-
cause this great boon given to
America in our climate must be pre-
served as the most sacred trust We
have, for the sake of the sick and
weak. To let Los Angeles become a
breeder OF pestilence through fifth
would be not merely the most sense
less thing Imaginable, but it would be
the most criminal.
Street paving is making some
progress, but nothing in comparison
to what should be doing. The rains
will be here before the very heart OF
the city is provided with good
thoroughfares.
The City Council should get to
work and put the city hall under way.
1t is as much needed as the county
court house isl Let the School Board
too put the recently voted funds into
circulation at once and give us more
ample school room.
Private enterprise is about to spend
a round million in two hotels. And
the same agency is spending many
millions in smaller edifices and private
houses. With railroad building in
progress like wild fire, there is no
doubt the "boom" will keep on the
crest of still rising wave.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1887-09-22

Bur for the tragic side of the affair,
that circular addressed "To the work.
inpmen of the United States of North
America" in relation to the execution
of the Anarchists would be funny.
There are no aoorkingmen in that fol-
lowing. The toilers are for the most
part pretty we'll paid, we'll fed, well
clothed and we'll housed in "The
United States of North America. 1t

seaboard.

Hon. Gordon E. Cole expressed re-
Gently at Fairbault some of the COM
mon errors of the hour. He said:
mo man ever piles up money by the
hundreds of millions BY legitimate
enterprise or industry" This sweep
ing assertion which implies that all
very rich men are rogues is refuted in
hundreds OF instances. It is exactly
by legitimate enterprises that the
most solid fortunes are made. When
men open q Suez canal, strike Com
stock lode or build and manage rail
roads successfully, they make money
rs fairly as any farmer. Capital can
take care OF itself but SO much should
be acknowledged at least. Mr.. Cole
again says: 81 am informed by the
best Of authority that the aggregate
losses Of the state Of Minnesota il

wheat,options exceed the annual value
of the entire wheat crop OF this great
grain producing state. Prohibit a
sale of such articles unless the seller
has them at the time of his contract
to deliver" Speculation is subject
to abuses, but the loss in wheat OPP
tions" falls largely upon men who
bring morey into Minnesota from
Chicago and elsewhere, and the gains
help to build up cities like Duluth
and Minneapolis. Mr.. Coles scheme
to prohibit dealing in wheat might do
in a despotic country, but it is not
practicable in this, where contracts
for future delivery are made in nearly
all trades. Mr.. Cole also observes:
The entire system of American railways
is based upona radically false and erron-
o u foundation. With a view to deriv-
ing the lowest rates from competitive
struggles parallel railways have been null
tiplied in this country to an extent else
wnere unknown. The result has been
that the fierce struggles for existence at
terminal points have forced the rates
down below the remunerative mark, and
to save the corporation from bankruptcy
they have been raised proportionately
| above the remunerative point at all other
| stations ON the line.
Mr.. Cole should admit hat rail
road competition has saved millions
| of dollars to farmers by the low rates
which it has produced. These low
rates are established throughout the
Minnesota and Dakota grain districts
as well as in the large cities. He ev-
identity caters to the prejudices rather
than to the good sense Of his au-
| dience.

ENLARGE THE

The entire northwest is concerned
in the earnest efforts which Duluth is
making to promote the improvement
Of the Sault Ste. Marie. Nature has
done SO much in extending an EARN
of the Atlantic" to Duluth that the
United States government ought
readily do all that is needed to form
a broad, unbroken waterway from
Duluth to Buffalo, and thence to. New
York by the enlargement of the Erie
canal. A portion of the surplus
which appears to trouble the national
fnanciers SO much might be employ
ed with advantage in forming that
waterway. The scheme is essentially
national in its scope-as much so as
the deepening of the Mississippi be-
low New Orleans.
The people of Duluth have done
their part. They have improved the
harbor, erected spacious docks and
built spacious warehouses thereon.
They have erected elevators which
serve as granaries for the entire
northwest, and have established a
board of trade, as we'll as several
banks, which indirectly help every
grain-producer from the great lakes
to the Rocky mountains.
This enterprise should in itself eli
cit a cordial response when Duluth
seeks to benefit the entire northwest,
by promoting the enlargement of the
channel at the $780," which connects
lake Superior with lakes Huron and
Michigan.
The enlargement of the $500"
means lower freights between Duluth
and the seaboard. This closely con
Germs Gceat Falls, for the wool, hides
and bullion which will be shipped
here, will seek mostly eastern or for
eign markets. Every cent which we
gain in freight will both encourage
our trade and enable us to compete
successfully with home and foreign
merchants engaged in like traffic. On
the other hand, when Great Falls be-
comes the mart for northern Montana
and elsewhere, it will be of the first
Importance to have q broad waterway
by which we may procure cheaply, as
regards freights, the products of east
ern factories and foreign lands. It
might easily be demonstrated that,
both as regards u export and i'm
port trade, we are more interested in
the lake navigation than places which,
like. st. Paul. are relatively nearer the
seaboard.
